Langford is a hold — league-average bat, trending the right way

His expected wOBA is .319, four points above the league average of .315, and his 471 plate appearances are well past the point where that number becomes reliable. Nothing underneath is unstable. His contact quality sits right at league: 88.6 mph average exit velocity against 89.0, a 36.4% hard-hit rate against 40.0%, and a 7.9% barrel rate against 8.0% — all from 305 batted balls, far past the 50-to-60 needed to trust them. The one thing pulling in his favor is the strike zone: he walks 11.7% of the time against a league 8.5%, and he chases less than average at 26.2%. His expected wOBA has been climbing across the sample, so the underlying profile is pointed the right way even if the results are not there yet. This is a league-average hitter with a good eye. Hold.
